Multiple Choice

Carlos Kraushar was an enterprising junior at River City College.

If he made a sale, it was on credit and payments were made to the individual farmers. If any roadside vendor failed to make a payment, Carlos made good on the loss and paid the farmer. He would return unsold tomatoes to the farmers and they would in turn sell them for hog feed. The farmers paid Carlos 25% of all the payments they received from the produce merchants.
